ABOUT EL RECODO TANGO MUSIC
Ever wondered what was the title of this tango you heard and whose orchestra and singer you only know about? Ever came across a "track 1" in your musical library that should be named "Al compás del corazón" (oops!!) ? More, have you ever wondered what other songs that singer you love so much recorded, who is the composer, what are the lyrics...? Well then you will find this tool to be more than useful.
What is it?
EL RECODO TANGO MUSIC is a powerful database designed to navigate easily through tons of tango recordings. Each recording comes with a 10s high quality audio sample for identification purpose. With last improvements, you can now also find tandas suggestions for DJing, alternative recordings of the same tango, more lyrics and a link to share it as a TANGO MUSIC QUIZ.
How to listen more than 10s?
Only 10s long clips are available in the database (useful enough to identify what you are looking for). By clicking on the icon , you can get more about the recording, including a link to search it on Youtube. Some of these recordings are available on records, others are harder to find on discs with that quality or are simply unedited to this day.
Of course you can contact me for more...
